About Me


William John 'Liam' Neeson OBE, born in Ballymena, Northern Ireland on the 7th of June, 1952, is an Oscar-nominated Northern Irish actor.
He was raised as a Roman Catholic in the predominately Protestant and Unionist town of Ballymena in Northern Ireland and later attended Queen's University of Belfast. However, he left the university without graduating.
At age nine, Neeson began taking boxing lessons at the All Saints Youth Club. Standing six feet four inches high, he became a youth champion before a blackout during one of his boxing matches forced him to withdraw from the ring.
Since July 3, 1994, Neeson has been married to actress Natasha Richardson. They have two sons, Michéal Richard (born 1995) and Daniel Jack (born 1996). The family home is in exurban Millbrook, New York.
High-profile appearances include the lead roles in Darkman, Schindler's List, Kinsey, Michael Collins, Qui-Gon Jinn in Star Wars: the Phantom Menace and Rob Roy. Other well-known supporting roles include voicing the lion Aslan in the blockbuster fantasy film The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, as Dr. Lovell in Nell, Godfrey of Ibelin in Kingdom of Heaven and Henri Ducard in Batman Begins. He also has one of the main roles in K-19: The Widowmaker as Capt. Mikhail Polenin, and he has a role as Daniel, a man who just lost his wife and has to take care of his stepson that his wife Joanna left him with Love Actually. Several of these characters are mentors to the main character who die at some point in the film. He has also voiced the role of a kindly priest on The Simpsons who converted Bart and Homer to Catholicism. In a recent hosting appearance on Saturday Night Live, he very convincingly played an aging hippie trying to borrow a police dog so he can find where he put his "stash".
His performance as Oskar Schindler in Schindler's List earned him very wide acclaim as well as an Academy Award nomination in 1993, but the award went to Tom Hanks for his performance in Philadelphia.
As of 2006, Neeson's next film appearance will be in the American Civil War epic Seraphim Falls with Pierce Brosnan and Angelica Huston. He is also set to star as Abraham Lincoln in a film directed by Steven Spielberg.
Neeson was named an Officer of the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II in her 1999 New Year's Honours List.
